But if it means walking home every day, even in snow and rain, would you do it? I did. I took part in an after-school Spanish class. Because it was after school, no school buses were there to take me home when the class ended. And my parents couldn’t pick me up, so I had to walk home. At first, I hated the walk because of the long distance. But after a few months, I got used to (习惯于) it and it became one of my daily activities, like getting dressed and brushing my teeth. And I began to enjoy it. I got to see things like birds flying and trees changing colour. A few times I saw something very special, like a small snake near the sidewalk, or two cars that came very close to crashing! Many of my classmates noticed what I did. Once, one girl in my class asked her mother to drive me home because it was raining outside, and I didn’t have an umbrella . Some people who I didn’t know even gave me a ride they thought it was too cold out. People always think walking long distances is difficult. Modern technology (技术) makes common things, like long-distance walking, seem impossible. Many people, like myself, live in the country and are close to nature, but also far from the nature.
